Was always my favorite character, and became the undeniably biggest badass in FMA in chapter 93.

The best tactician and fighter in the series, alchemically brilliant (though maybe not as much as the Elrics or Marcoh), always one step ahead of his enemies, and deceptive enough to effectively hide these qualities behind the smokescreen of a skirt-chasing fool.

nee i read that most ppl say that roy actually kill winry's parents but wasn't *SPOILERS* it scar dat killed winry's parents in the manga ??

Seeing as though you're actually asking, i'll place it in spoiler tags.

Spoiler for Manga future events:

We do in fact find out later in the manga that it was Scar who killed Winry's parents. The first series had Mustang as the one who killed them, and that's because the manga back then didn't reach the point where we find out the truth.

It was pretty disappointing how they made almost his entire character revolve entirely around the guilt of having killed Winry's parents and then... went nowhere with it. They interacted like... once. Bad decision there.

Gotta say that Roy has always been my favorite FMA character, and his recent show in the manga further cements this position. Gotta say though, I was really kinda worried during...

Spoiler for manga spoilers:

that little mini-arc he had after his team was disbanded and he started working out a plan with his connections with old women. That was kinda weird. Also, it was really slow and for a while it didn't really seem like it was going anywhere. To this day, it's still probably my least favorite Roy-related subplot.

Yeah it was kind of frustrating seeing him do nothing but buying flowers and getting information from old women, while Ed and Al got a bunch of action at Briggs, but it was neccesary. And hey we got to see his mother, which was, well, a big suprise.

Spoiler for manga:

Oh yeah. I had totally forgot about him meeting his mother

Hmm, but yeah, I guess it was necessary in the sense that it gave him something to do and showed how he would go about his plans. But still, I wish Arakawa could have made it just a little more interesting. I mean, Hawkeye didn't get a lot of action during that timespan either, but she's the one who found out that Selim was Pride.

I love those Roy parts you guys are talking about because it highlights Roy's double nature so to speak. Not to mention I love that FMA isn't all action. It's just as much build up and strategy which is what you were seeing going on in those scenes with Roy.
